Watch darts star hit incredible 9-darter for first time ever after struggles COUNTING against Englishman Stephen Bunting
It came just a leg after the 36-year-old went bust after botching up his counting to go 4-1 down to Stephen Bunting.
But Dekker became the first Norwegian darter with a perfect leg on the Euro Tour circuit.
He missed four chances to lead 2-1, after which Bunting took the lead with a 62 finish.
The Englishman then ran out to 4-1 lead before after Dekker accidentally got his numbers muddled.
Dekker thought he’d finished off a 101 checkout before the announcer informed him that he’d gone bust
It turns out he actually required 102 instead.
But Dekker then produced perfect leg two rounds later to make it 5-2 and raise the roof in Budapest.
One commentator joked: “Is he going to get the numbers right?'” to reference Dekker’s earlier mishap.
The audio equipment even struggled with the noise of the cheers with it noticeably crackling on the feed
But the Norwegian was unable to pull off a shock comeback.
Despite throwing his first professional nine-darter, it was Bunting who claimed a 6-2 victory to advance to round three.
And Luke Littler pulled out barely 24 hours before it was due to start on Friday for an unknown reason.
Fans accused Littler of taking the weekend off to play computer games as the time coincides with the release of EA FC 25.
The darts star, who is a big footie fan, decided to stir the pot, commenting under the post: “What a coincidence.”
The 17-year-old sensation won the Euro Tour tournaments in the Belgium and Austria earlier this year
